Implication

Questions routine total urinary catechol assessment in hypertension and HF; leaves open whether fractionated assays better inform sympathetic research.

Structured PICO

P
Population
Patients with arterial hypertension, congestive heart failure, post-myocardial infarction, emotional stress, thoracolumbar sympathectomy, or renal uremia
O
Outcome
Total urinary catechol excretionsurrogate

Total urinary catechol excretion measured by colorimetry does not significantly change in common cardiovascular conditions like hypertension, heart failure, or post-MI, but is affected by sympathectomy and renal uremia.
